GIP Human (Gastric Inhibitory Polypeptide) is a 42-amino acid peptide hormone that functions as an incretin. Secreted by intestinal K cells in response to nutrient ingestion, GIP enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion and acts as a weak inhibitor of gastric acid secretion. It plays a key role in glucose homeostasis and metabolic regulation.
